Was just a thought. I’ve caught myself out more than once with that easy to forget bottom corner 
Good thought!
It was only yesterday I learned that the Selection Filter impacts at which point the footprint is grabbed when moving a footprint. Sort of nice feature, but not that intuitive to me. Forum post

On Windows 7.0.8, the shove is very hard with 1mm grid, smooth with 0.1mm
It’s something in the constraints-section of the provided example.
copper to hole clearance: reduce from 0.25 → 0.2mm → shoving vias is working
Nice find!! I’ll add this information to the bug. I’m not sure if it is a bug, or if it should be this way. If this is as correct behavior, it would be nice with some sort of warning.
For me with Copper to hole clearance,
0,25 mm: absolutely no movement on the vias
0,2 mm: the vias shoves very reluctantly and moves only a few pixels
0,18 mm: its a bit easier to get the vias to shove, and they move a bit further
0,15 mm: it’s easy to shove the vias, and I can shove them far. everything works as I believe it should.
Save behavior in both 7.0.8-43-ge6e29b6c4c and 7.99.0-3095-gbf29b25190.
Offtopic, but why can’t you?
Because it depends on a lot of new library versions i don’t have.
The copper to hole is involved.
I am playing with a trivial test board with a single via in the area and no tracks beyond it to complicate things, so it should not be a factor.
The bottom right via is hard to shove unless you reduce grid or the copper to hole clearance

Hi, I posted something similar some time ago: when I try to drag [w] a via with tracks attached it will resist to move and when I try harder it will suddenly jump several grids. I can move [m] the via without problems and afterwards refit the tracks and all clearences are ok !?
